Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted Age At Draft: 23.1 Kretzschmar spent three seasons with Dartmouth, which culminated in a standout 2022 campaign where he hit .353/.406/.635 with seven home runs and 16 doubles. Following the season, the 6-foot-2, 205-pound outfielder transferred to California, where he’s continued to hit at a high level in the Pac-12. Kretzschmar hit .322/.391/.608 with a career-high 13 home runs and 14 doubles. Kretzschmar hits the ball hard and did a nice job shoring up an overly aggressive approach that he showed at the beginning of the season, and he has an excellent in-zone contact rate. He’s a fringy defender in right field, but as a lefthanded hitter with a bit of pop and a solid ability to use the entire field, could be an interesting day three senior sign.
